In terms of private enterprises, in order to prevent the leakage of confidentiality, some enterprises have prohibited employees from using ChatGPT at work.

After Samsung Electronics recently introduced ChatGPT, employees inadvertently added internal information to ChatGPT's learning database when querying questions and verifying answers. If other users ask relevant questions on ChatGPT, Samsung's secrets may be leaked.

Western countries mainly use "privacy" as an excuse. Taiwan has not yet set up a dedicated privacy agency. However, if we look at it from the perspective of "information security", if civil servants use ChatGPT with official equipment and upload confidential or sensitive information during the conversation, it may become an issue. my country's information security loopholes.

Regarding the information security of the public sector, the Ministry of Digital Development regularly adjusts the list of products that "endanger national information security" and prohibits the use of official equipment according to law.

It is difficult to actively steal data from webpages. ChatGPT has not yet endangered national security

As for whether ChatGPT is included in this list?

The official said, "I have noticed the Italian government's recent regulations on ChatGPT, but currently ChatGPT is not on the list of products that endanger national information security, and has not discussed whether to ban it." However, the official revealed that the regulations for the use of AI products by public agencies , the government is discussing.

The official explained the reason why it was not banned. First, according to the Information and Communication Security Management Law, public servants cannot upload confidential information.

Officials gave an example. In order to strengthen information security, the Ministry of the Interior has formulated the "Key Points for the Management of the Use of Physically Isolated Environments" to regulate that when contractors handle confidential business, all electronic paperwork should be processed on computers that are physically isolated, and Internet access is prohibited.

Second, the list of products that endanger national information security will be listed, because some software may maliciously steal and monitor the data in the device after being downloaded to the official device, so the use of the public sector should be restricted; but ChatGPT is not a software that needs to be downloaded , but a web page, there are fewer such concerns.
